In today’s episode, I’m joined by Holly Schreiber, Joanna Graham, and Andy Friedman for a deep dive into what really makes a college essay stand out. We share why students should start early—way before senior year kicks in—and how the best personal statements reveal something real, not rehearsed. From creative brainstorming techniques to honest talk about why AI won’t cut it, we cover what works (and what doesn’t). If you want the inside scoop on writing essays that actually matter, don’t miss this one!
